heh.. obviously there are lots of diverse opinions on this.. some ppl
completely hate the new RDJ album, which is their reasoning for AB1 being
12389437 times better, and then there are those who think AB1 is too oldish
sounding, and there are those who love the both of them to death, but still
say that AB1 is 32498218 times better :) I'm one of the latter ppl..
I love the RDJ album, but I must say, AB1 is great, and I won't say
anything about the EP as a whole, but Analogue Bubblebath the track is a
timeless classic and there's no way that anything on the RDJ album can match
that track.. like Gonzi said, it's a 'perfect' track.
You can't really compare RDJ LP to AB1, because you are easily overwhelmed
with the 10 tracks on RDJ. All you need is 1 out of 4 of the tracks on AB1
to be brilliant and it beats RDJ LP hands down, if you want to do it that
way, but you really can't.. at least imho. the closest any of the tracks on
RDJ LP come to being as brilliant as Analogue Bubblebath is 4, and it still
is thousands of miles away from being as good.
